That's what I'm wondering...I've got a system, while not flawless,
works very well...and I've learned a lot of "tricks" and "tweaks" to
working with tables.  I work with tables primarily for design, but
apply styles to the tables and cells...

Don't try it...  you have a perfectly good system, no reason to throw it
away.

Subject: Can CSS and Layers Take the Place of Tables for Displaying Dynamic
Data?

Hi, all...

I've always used tables to display my data from queries.

Now, I've begun to be interested more in using CSS and Layers.

The first question I have is how would one display data from queries
if not by using the top row of a table as the column headers and then
looping through the query, displaying the data for each query row in
each table row?

That approach makes perfect sense to me, but I don't know enough
about CSS and Layers to know if you have to (or if it's preferable) to
use a table for data display even when using CSS and Layers?

Also..a table will expand vertically to accomodate more data...will a div?

Anyone have any input to offer on the approach to presentation?

If the answer to these questions and the overall approach is positive
to using CSS and Layers for display, then I'll continue to study the
tutorials,
etc., that I find to learn CSS and Layers...

Rick
